SALVI SAYS HE IS INNOCENT IN ABORTION CLINIC KILLINGS

John C. Salvi III, the student hairdresser who was charged in the Dec. 30 shootings at two Massachusetts abortion clinics, pleaded innocent to state charges of two counts of first-degree murder and five counts of assault with intent to murder. Wearing a bulletproof vest, the unshaven Salvi appeared in the heavily guarded courtroom in Norfolk County, Va. to enter his plea.
